Financial reporter Sang Ying infiltrates a banquet to investigate the secrets of the Qi Group, where she unexpectedly witnesses the CEO, Qi Han, at his most vulnerable. A biography that begins with coercion reveals a startling bond of fate between two battered souls: the mulberry-leaf birthmark on the back of Sang Ying’s neck and the brand on Qi Han’s chest are quantum marks left by the fire that took their parents twenty years ago.

When Qi Han recovers his lost eighth personality beneath the stars of Orion, and Sang Ying unlocks the spark’s code on the Sang clan’s home planet, they finally understand: every separation is the prelude to a reunion, and love is
